What are some books where the reader learns by building a project?

Inspired by this thread on HackerNews which has been incredibly useful to me:

I recently finished this phenomenal book called "Building Enterprise JavaScript Applications":

https://www.packtpub.com/web-development/building-enterprise-javascript-applications

Which takes the reader from zero to building a non-trivial production fullstack application with JavaScript. I highly recommend it to anyone stuck in "Advanced Beginner" land.

Anyone else have some books they would recommend?

🚀 New article alert! Dive into "Servlet: The Foundation of Java Web Technology" and explore the backbone of Java web development. From handling HTTP requests to enabling frameworks like Spring MVC, servlets are where it all begins.
